Previously on The Amazing Race Latin America...
The great adventure started at the Bicentenario Park, with eleven teams ready to win.
But only ten remain racing at reached the city of Otavalo in a leg when they had to show their manual abilities, concentation, skills and strengh.
Sonia & Gabriel were the luckiest, and received a big surprise winning the leg. Carlos & Orlando listened the less desirable words.
Today 9 teams keep racing on ecuadorian soil. Should work togetherand face vertigo to continue on the race and win the 100 thousand dollars prize.

Ok, here's what's coming after the intro.



Surrounded by mountais, lakes and rivers, the city of Otavalo is known as the multicultural capital of Ecuador. This was the second PS of the race.

Sonia & Gabriel departed in first (no time frame again)
RI: You have 130usd. Make your way on taxi to Otavalo BusStation and take a bus to Quito. Go on taxi to Chimbacalle train station to receive next clue.

Clara & Delfi in 2nd, Audi & David in 3rd. The girls says they have a 30 minutes lead over last place, and buses depart every 10 minutes. Mexican friends are happy that they're in third, say yesterday was a better day than first one.
Felipe & Stefa leave in fourth place; Jenny & Martín in 5th; Christian & Dina in 6th and Giovanni & Juan Carlos in 7th.
Jenny & Martin talk about stop bickering. She speaks about using more "my love, baby, honey, sweetheart"; but Martin says they're competing and she must be a competitor as him. "You do things or you do things", he says and add he cant be polite. Funny moment from him kissing Jenny while saying instructions of the race.

Sonia & Gabriel at the bus station first. The bus depart in five minutes. Sisters right behind them. Colombians tell them to hide so nobody else knows this is the right bus. Trick appears to work with Audi & David, who can't identify the correct bus and walk along it. Somebody point to the bus, and they jump in with the other 2 teams. Felipe and Stefa also made it to that bus.

Javi & Nico depart in eighth position and Ceci & Juan in last.

In the race to the bus, Jenny & Martin taxi pass all the others. Christian & Dina says that they're candidates to be U-Turned; but if they get it first, they will use it on Jenny & Martin. Both of them plus Giovanni and JC are on the second bus.
Argentinean friends in third bus; and father and daughter in last one.

First bus arrives at Quito. All teams get taxi to the train station.
On the second bus, Giovanni & JC ask the driver if there's a stop where they can get a cab before the bus station. All teams leave the bus and run through the street to catch a taxi. Nico & Javier do the same. Ceci & Juan pick their cab at the bus terminal.

Audi & David firts at the train station, with Sonia & Gabriel close behind them. They find the cluegiver (a girl dressed as a station guardian).
RI: Travel by taxi to the Quito Hotel to spend the night and return next day to the station on the designated times to board a train to the Aloasi station in Machachi, where they'll find the next clue.
There's a banner saying that the boarding time starts at 7.00am and the train departs at 8.15am

Sonia & Gabriel in 2md. Christian & Dina in 3rd. Sisters in 4th.
Mixed reactions about the HoO.
Stefa & Felipe in 5th. Giovanni & JC in sixth. Jenny & Martin in 7th. Nico & Javier in 8th. Juan & Ceci in last,.

At the hotel, Sonia & Gabriel are surprised to see Christian & Dina there.

Next morning all teams are arriving to the station to board the train and mingle while waiting. But they realize that Stefa & Felipe and Audi & David are missing with only 30 minutes left to the train to depart.

Camera cut to ER of the Pichincha Hospital. David is explaining that Audi started to feel sick once they were at their room, and after going to the bathroom she fell down with a lot of pain on her abdomen; so they decided to go to the clinic and doctors are doing exams to find out what's going on. He says most important things is her to be good.

Back to the hospital.

Oh, God! Due to the accident on the bike RB in leg one, she suffered multiple internal injuries, including a serious one on her liver. She's also having a transfusion. ER doctor tells that on this conditions she can't keep racing. Guys, Audi doesn't look well at all.
Toya is at the hospital now and talks with David. She tells David to give Audi her support and love. Of course, they're out of the race, but the reason is not elimination but quitting due to a health problem. She kisses David and then is shown doing the same with Audi. Last scene is her waving to the camera in her bed.

Chilean couple finally arrives to the station. They say they thought not to continuing racing, mad at the last leg penalty; and because of the time waiting in the chill, she got sick: sore throat and stomach ache with vomits, etc. (Flashback from the moment when she drunk water from the same creek where they had to wash the wool, and Martin telling her not to do it). Felip insist in blaming the cold while waiting the penalty end.

Finally time to board the train comes. During the travel, Stefa keep feeling bad, needing to go to the bathroom several times.

Jaime presents Machachi, as the "Gate to Heaven" and an important destination for the mountain tourism. Gosh, it's clear that he's fair ahead even from Toya, cause he ends the segment talking about the nine teams getting that place to keep racing.

They're at the Aloasi station now, and it's a mad dash to the clue box. Dina & Christian first to get the clue.
RI: Travel on taxi to the Bee Farm Ugshapamba, where is waiting a Claro tablet with their next clue.
Gio (I'm going to call it that way from now on) & JC second with the clue. Sonia & Gabriel 3rd. Martín & Jenny in 4th. Mexicans in 5th. Argentina's teams in number
six and seven. No sights of Stefa & Felipe.

All teams on route to the Bee Farm. Ecuador couple first arriving there. They get the tablet.
RI: Starting now, they must carry the Claro localizer all the leg. Now they must locate the bee sanctuary and do an orchard following the pattern of the example. If it's ok, they'll receive the next clue.
Sonia & Gabriel in second. Jenny & Martin in third. Juan & Ceci in fourth. Sisters in fifth. Nico & Javi in sixth. Gio & JC in seventh. All teams run to the sanctuary.

All teams look to the locals while giving instructions. They use diffent techniques to do the task. Nico & Javier says that maybe because they're getting old they love to do this kind of things :lol:

BTW, still no sight of Chilean couple. 

JC says to Gio that "you want your Amazing Race, here you have it". It's really a very physical task. All teams are struggling with it one way or another. And the picks and shovels disarm almost all the time.
Ecuadorian friends in confessional says that those hands are not from farmers.

And finally Stefa & Felipe appear doing the task with the others! Felipe says that the pace today is led for her.

Gio and JC call the judge, and it's not right at all. Chileans try is also not good. Nico & Javier ask the judge too... and it's good! They get the clue in first.
RI: travel by taxi to Sierraloma Lodge to find the next clue. Keep your taxi.

Sterfa & Felipe second attempt is good, and they're in second place.
Jenny & Martin first call is bad. Gio and JC try again, and fail. They argue with the judge saying he told them something different last time.

The race continues.

Judge tells Gio & JC that the plants must be planted without the covers.
Christina & Dina call the judge, and isn't good. On the contrary, Juan & Ceci got a thumbs up, and now are in third place.

Nico & Javier arrive to the lodge.
RB: "Who loves heights?" One team member must test their matematical skills while challenging the heights. Racer has to climb up the Sierraloma Lodge circuit and surpass their different stations until come to 24 points. (Is shown that every station has a number)  When this is done, it will receive the next clue.
Javier is doing it.

At the farm, Gio & Jc finally gets the clue in fourth place. Meanwhile, Stefa & Felipe reach the lodge and the RB clue. Of course, Felipe does it.

At the RB location, Javier start the ascension through the climbing wall, that is the only point to enter the circuit. The exit point is the middle of it, and the jumping from there worths six points. Once at the top, he ask the instructor about the values of each section, and picks the one who gives him 2 points.
Chilean couple reach the RB location. Nico says they have a lot of time.

Back to the farm, Sonia & Gabriel get their clue in fifth place and the sisters in sixth.

At the lodge, Ceci chooses to perfom the RB. So does JC.

On the RB, Javier reach the end of a 6 points station.
Stefa is having medical assitance: they're checking her pressure. Juan & Ceci arrives. Felipe is at the top of the wall.

At the farm, Dina & Christian end the task in seventh. And Jenny & Martin in last.

(I just realize that none of them know what happened with Mexican friends and are racing just as their lives depend of it)

Lodge: Sonia will perform the Rb. Delfina and Christian will do it.

At the wall, JC says that Spiderman was an amateur in comparisson with him climbing. :lol:
OMG! Javier has no idea of his score! But when he arrives to the middle he jumps! And their in the lead! A female instructor handle their next clue.
RI: travel on taxi to the Hacienda El Porvenir, located at 4 km of the north entrance of the Cotopaxi Volcano Park. There they will find the next clue.
As they leave the place, Jenny & Martin arrives to the lodge. Jenny does the RB.

Felipe reach the middle and jumps.
Ceci is tangled and can't move forward. She asks for help, and that allows Sonia to pass her.
JC ends the rb in third.

Argentinean friends at the Hacienda. And it's a second RB!
RB: "Who has more balance?" The team member who didn't perfomr the first RB must complete the whole Cotopaxi Rope Circuit and pick a race flag at the end of it to exchange for a Samsung tablet with the next clue.
Of course, Nico is doing this RB. He receive some instructions and proceed to the structure.

On the way to the Hacienda, chileans taxi must stop to allow Stefa to vomit.

In the RB, all remaining teams are giving their best to finish it. Sonia needs only 6 points to end, so she goes to t he middle and jumps, to leave in fourth place.

In the taxi, Chilean couple talks that they could use the EP to surpass the friends, but they say it's not how they race. That they prefer to save it for a really complicated moment. And then they rip the RB clue and realize that Stefa has to do it.

Back to the race.

Stefa has to do the RB, but Felipe says to use the EP instead. Stefa - who is stubborn as a mule, as Felipe recalls in the confessional - persists in completing the task, and it's all said so.  :funny:
In the meantime, Nico is completing each section of the structure.
Stefa is about to start, and his hubby remind her that she has 2 minutes to complete each section of the circuit. To use that time. And she says she's a little dizzy.

At the first RB, Ceci complets the task in fifth place, and Christina in 6th.

On Cotopaxi, Javier says it's funny to see the other making all the job; and Stefa comments that wind is blowing.
Gio & JC get the second RB clue, as Sonia & Gabriel. Gio and Gabriel must do it.

Delfina finish the first RB in seventh, leaving Jenny in 8th.

Nicolas reaches the end of the circuit and picks the flag, that exchange for their next clue.
RI: Make your way on foot to the Hacienda El Porvenir patio, the Pit Stop from this leg of the race. The last team to check in here, may be elliminated.
The PS is at 3.600 meters height.

Juan and Dina perform the other RB.

Friends arrive to the patio. They're team number one! :yess:  Each one won a Samgung tablet, courtesy of Claro. When Toya ask about their race, they say they slowed down their pace.

At the RB, Stefa is having difficulties in one of the sections, asking for help. Soon, Gio and Gabriel arrive to the same section, and must wait for her to end it to continue.

Clara & Martin proceed to complete the second RB.

In the confessional, Felipe says that he was about to tell her to give up and use the EP, but in the end it wasn't necessary. Stefa finish the RB with Gio seconds behind her. They grab the flags and trades them for the clue. It's a race to the PS.
The married couple claim second place. Tell Toya & Jaime that doctor explained that Stefa needs one more day to get better.

Gio and JC are the team number three. They're proud they started in 7th and finished third.

Sonia & Gabriel finish RB in fouth, and check in the same position at the PS. They say in confessional thay saw problems on teamwork in many of the teams.

In the RB, Juan & Dina are fighting for fifth place. Juan is taking the whole two minutes to complete each section, making her waiting. She asks for him the letting her go first, what he answers no. But he suddenly made a mistake, and has to let her surpass him. That allows her to end in fifth place and reach with Christian the PS in that position.

Juan keeps struggling, while Clara & Martin are getting closer to him. And he falls from the structure. Ceci's face reflects dissappointment and suffering.

And the race continues.

Juan is hanging from the guide rope, with Clara & Martin waiting right behind him. Martin is encouraging him to keep going on.
He's helped by the instructors, and pull away to the previous conection point. That allow Clara to pass him too. She completes the circuit, picking the flag; the same for Martin a minute behind her. Delfina tells him not to mess with her sister, and Jenny tells Clara not to mess with her hubby.

They check in sixth and seventh position. Girls say that they came to the race for this kind of things. Martin says that when he competes, it doesn't matter if it's her mother, her brother, or anyone. He yells at everybody.

On the rope structure, Juan is trying to end it again. And he's finally done! :conf: They arrive in eightth place. Jaime ask him what happened, and he answers that he put a lot of pressure on himself to complete the RB.

And here comes the "particular" rules of TARLA: despite a team quit the race, what means that is automatically eliminated, Juan & Ceci are told that they're the last team to arrive and as this is a NEL: must complete a SB on the next leg.  :groan:

Both say they saw themselves in the finals. Only need to get over this situation and recover their strength. Hope never dies.

The penalty actually makes sense if you think about the possibility that this was a pre-determined NEL. If Audi hadn't gotten sick and they ended up in last, then they probably would have gotten the Speed Bump. It's not a big huge deal.

What IS a big huge deal is the official website for this season. It kind of sucks. There are no team bios and no FULL NAMES for the contestants. This is a big problem to me as a wiki writer, as we've documented the full names of all Latin American contestants before this.
